Ingredients
1medium-large zucchini (about 12 ounces)
1ounceprovolone cheese (about 1/3 cup shredded)
1ouncefontina cheese (about 1/3 cup shredded)
1ounceParmesan cheese (about 1/4 cup grated)
½cuppanko breadcrumbs (regular or gluten-free)
2tablespoonsall-purpose flour or gluten-free flour blend
½teaspoonground pepper
½teaspoondried oregano
1large egg, beaten
Cooking spray
Directions
Preheat oven or air fryer to 400°F. If baking, line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone liner.
Shred zucchini on the coarse side of a box grater. Place the shredded zucchini in a clean cotton towel (not terry cloth) and squeeze tightly to release excess liquid. Place in a large bowl. Shred provolone and fontina into the bowl, then grate Parmesan into the bowl. Add panko, flour, pepper and oregano; stir to combine. Add egg and stir to coat well.
If baking, place on the prepared baking sheet and lightly coat with cooking spray. Bake until lightly browned and crispy on top, about 20 minutes. If air-frying, coat the air-fryer basket and the tops of the tots with cooking spray. Air-fry until lightly browned and crispy on top, about 6 minutes.
Let the tots rest for 4 minutes before serving with your favorite sauce.

To make ahead
Shape tots (Steps 1-3) and freeze on a wax-paper-lined baking sheet; transfer to an airtight bag or container and freeze for up to 3 months. Bake or air-fry as directed without thawing.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
